We report on high-efficiency GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) fabricated with metallic hybrid reflectors (MHRs). It is shown that the MHRs consisting of an injection part (with low p-contact resistance and intermediate reflectance) and a spreading part (with high p-contact resistance and good reflectance) can enhance current injection and overall light reflectivity. Compared with reference LEDs with single reflectors, LEDs fabricated with Ag-based MHRs give higher output power by 8.9% and a reduction in forward voltage by 0.02 V (at 20 mA), resulting in the improvement of the power efficiency by 10%. 相似文献

Through the use of selective nickel (Ni) electroplating, patterned laser liftoff technique, and surface roughing of the top n-GaN epilayer, a novel process for the fabrication of vertical-structured metal-substrate GaN-based light-emitting diodes (VM-LEDs) to avoid difficulties in Ni substrate dicing and improve device yield was proposed and demonstrated. In conjunction with a sidewall passivation with SiO2 and keeping the size of epilayer smaller than that of Ni island, a considerable improvement in yield and device performance were shown. As compared to conventional lateral-structured GaN-based LEDs, VM-LEDs show an increase in light output power about 174% at 350 mA with a significant decrease in forward voltage from 3.5 to 3.17 V 相似文献

We report a fabrication and demonstration of a GaN-based high-Q vertical-cavity light-emitting diode (VCLED). The GaN VCLED is composed of a 25-pair high-reflectivity (98%) GaN/AlN distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), an eight-pair SiO2/Ta2O5 dielectric DBR (99%), and a three-lambda optical thickness InGaN/GaN active region. It shows a very narrow linewidth of 0.52 nm, corresponding to a cavity Q -value of 895 at a driving current of 10 mA and a dominant emission peak wavelength at 465.3 nm. In addition, this VCLED emission linewidth continues to decrease with an increasing injection current, suggesting a possible realization of GaN-based vertical-cavity surface emitting lasers. 相似文献

In this study, we demonstrate a GaN-based phosphor-free white-light light-emitting diode (LED), which is composed of GaN-based dual-wavelength (blue and yellow-green) multiple-quantum-wells (MQWs) and a transverse p-n junction. The device was realized by the regrowth of n-type GaN layers on the sidewall of p-type GaN and undoped MQWs. The problems related to the bias-dependent shape of the electroluminescence spectra that occur in traditional phosphor-free white-light LEDs (with vertical p-n junctions) are greatly minimized. The current-voltage performance of our device is comparable to that of the commercially available phosphor white-light LEDs. In addition, the dynamic measurement results indicate that we can attain a much higher modulation bandwidth (22 versus 3 MHz) with this device than with the currently available commercial ones. 相似文献

This paper reviews our recent progress of GaN-based high brightness light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Firstly, by adopting chemical wet etching patterned sapphire substrates in GaN-based LEDs, not only could increase the extraction quantum efficiency, but also improve the internal quantum efficiency. Secondly, we present a high light-extraction 465-nm GaN-based vertical light-emitting diode structure with double diffuse surfaces. The external quantum efficiency was demonstrated to be about 40%. The high performance LED was achieved mainly due to the strong guided-light scattering efficiency while employing double diffuse surfaces 相似文献

An interesting GaN-based light-emitting diode (LED) with a ten-period i-InGaN/p-GaN (5-nm/5-nm) superlattice (SL) structure, inserted between a multiple-quantum-well structure and a p-GaN layer, is fabricated and studied. This inserted SL can be regarded as a confinement layer of holes to enhance the hole injection efficiency. As compared with a conventional LED device without the SL structure, the studied LED exhibits better current-spreading performance and an improved quality. The turn-on voltage, at 20 mA, is decreased from 3.32 to 3.14 V due to the reduced contact resistance as well as the more uniformity of carrier injection. A substantially reduced leakage current (10-7-10-9 A) and higher endurance of the reverse current pulse are found. As compared with the conventional LED without the SL structure, the significant enhancement of 25.4% in output power and the increment of 5% in external quantum efficiency are observed. 相似文献

We demonstrate a high-speed GaN-based green light-emitting diode for plastic optical fiber (POF) communication applications. By using a combination of n-type doping and undoped InxGa1-xN/GaN based multiple quantum wells (MQWs), and a 76-mum-diameter current-confined aperture structure, we can obtain an extremely high electrical-to-optical (E-O) 3 dB bandwidth (~330 MHz), which is limited by the spontaneous recombination lifetime of the MQWs. A reasonable coupled power (-264 muW) can be simultaneously achieved for a 2 mm in diameter POF with a 0.5 numerical aperture (NA). 相似文献

In an attempt to enhance the reliability of GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the selective wet chemical etching of p-GaN surface in the GaN-based LEDs using KOH+NaOH in an ethylene glycol solution was investigated. The leakage currents of the etched LED under forward and reverse bias voltages were much lower, compared to those of a nonetched LED. The etched LED also showed improved light extraction efficiency and the degradation rate of light output power at a high injection current of 300 mA was slower than that for a nonetched LED. These results can be attributed to a decrease in the surface defects, an increase in hole concentration, and the increased surface roughness of the etched p-GaN 相似文献

We discuss, through numerical device simulation, a number of possible design approaches intended for optimizing the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of light-emitting diodes based on InGaN quantum wells (QWs) grown along the c-axis emitting in the near-ultraviolet region. We study the effects on IQE of thickness, doping, and alloy composition of the electron and hole blocking layers in order to maximize the confinement of both carrier species in the active region. We discuss the selection of the number of QWs to be employed in the active region and their optimum width, and we show the comparatively minor effects of the thickness of the barrier layers. We also compare different strategies for barrier doping, confirming that a p-type doping in all barriers helps to compensate the spontaneous and piezoelectric surface charges and to enhance hole transport. Finally, we evaluate the impact of Auger recombination on IQE and its role in the experimentally observed efficiency droop. Whenever possible, we suggest practical design criteria and provide technologically feasible sets of design parameters. 相似文献

This study investigated the characteristics of a triangular light-emitting diode (LED) and compared it to a standard quadrangular LED. The total radiant flux from the packaged triangular LED increased by 48% and 24% at input currents of 20 and 100 mA, respectively, compared to that of a quadrangular LED which was grown on patterned sapphire substrate. In light far-field beam distribution, the light extraction in the horizontal direction of the LED was much higher than that of the quadrangular LED due to the enhancement of light emission from the side walls of the triangular LED. 相似文献

We investigate the mechanism responding for performance enhancement of gallium nitride (GaN)-based light-emitting diode (LED) grown on chemical wet-etching-patterned sapphire substrate (CWE-PSS) with V-Shaped pit features on the top surface. According to temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) measurement and the measured external quantum efficiency, the structure can simultaneously enhance both internal quantum efficiency and light extraction efficiency. Comparing to devices grown on planar sapphire substrate, the threading dislocation defects of LED grown on CWE-PSS are reduced from 1.28 times 109/cm2 to 3.62 times 108/cm2, leading to a 12.5% enhancement in internal quantum efficiency. In terms of the theoretical computing of radiation patterns, the V-Shaped pits roughening surface can be thought of as a strong diffuser with paraboloidal autocorrelation function, increasing the escape probability of trapped photons and achieving a 20% enhancement in light extraction efficiency. Moreover, according to the measurement of optical diffraction power, CWE-PSS demonstrated superior guided light extraction efficiency than that of planar sapphire substrate, thus an extra 7.8% enhancement in light extraction efficiency was obtained. Therefore, comparing to the conventional LED, an overall 45% enhancement in integrated output power was achieved. 相似文献

Patterned sapphire substrate light-emitting diodes display obvious negative capacitance (NC) at large forward biases. This is measured using a method based on a small signal alternating current together with direct I–V plots. The NC in patterned sapphire substrate LEDs grows exponentially with the forward applied voltage. This observation is unexpected and in contrast with Shockley’s p–n junction theory, which only includes an increasing diffusion capacitance and not a NC. However, this result is in good agreement with conventional sapphire substrate LEDs. Furthermore, the negative terminal capacitance confirmed the prediction of Laux and Hess’ theory. The ideal factor of a patterned sapphire substrate LED is about 5, greatly exceeding the traditional theoretical value. The capacitance increased to a maximum and then gradually decreased, which was similar to the results for a p–n junction. Patterned sapphire substrate LEDs can withstand higher voltages than conventional sapphire substrate LEDs. This work could further confirm the existence of NC. 相似文献
